Fine hair is starting to cover baby this week. It's called lanugo. Bones are getting harder and retaining calcium. (Be sure to get your daily allowance of calcium in!!) Baby can suck his thumb now, and many moms to be, have seen them doing this on ultrasounds. Baby's skin is still very thin, and the blood vessels can be seen through it. By the end of this week, your baby is about 4 inches long and weighs 1.75 ounces.

Taylor asked me if she looks bigger at all. I told her she does. She is beginning to appear rounder, and it is mostly noriceable when she is sitting up straight. According to the Mayo Clinic baby book, Peanut is huge! I mean, only 4 inches, but that is huge! I cannot believe how big this kid is already. It is just amazing.
